Board members dedicate many hours, resources, and energy to represent, champion and help their non-profits. Without them, your organization would be in a state of nil. This is why it is crucial to show your appreciation for their efforts. It’s not just helping to create a culture for recognition as well as increases their involvement with your cause and their willingness to keep working.
It demonstrates that you are concerned about the interests and needs of your board members when you take the time to create an individualized card. You can also make it more personal than a generic greeting card because you can include specifics about the member’s work and send them a personal note.
A thoughtful gift is an ideal way to show your appreciation. A travel mug or reusable cooler is a unique and useful gift for school board member that can remind them of their significant contribution to the local community.
You can also host an event that is a celebration of your board members. This can be a virtual or in-person event that allows the board to celebrate their achievements together. You can also highlight their achievements in a story on the news or a social media shoutout which is a great method of bringing attention to the outstanding work they accomplish.
